Oh well I've been busy (having a life and getting over a Cosmopolitan induced hangover).

I think you'll find someone got there much earlier than me about half way through the thread.

I would presume that Badge is talking about many Brits who target parts of Spain because it is 'UK in the sun' and, I quote my OH's cousin 'there's a great supermarket there (Benidorm) that's just like being in ASDA - it's fantastic'.

I would hope most well travelled people would discount Spain as a travelling experience. Fish n chips/beer red faced louts

Just as much as the Aussies and Kiwis would consider Top Deck tours of Europe more a mobile beerfest.(But one hell of a 3 week holiday )

I find that I have to give them directions all the time but at least I've never had a cabbie abuse me for it unlike the OP.
